NAD VM 300 4K Video Module Datasheet

VM 300 Video MDC Module
NAD CLASSIC AV MDC UPGRADES
Modular Design Construction (MDC)
NAD’s innovative MDC architecture is a highly advanced concept,
allowing customers to upgrade their NAD AV Receiver or Processor
with new technology and additional features well into the future.
NAD introduced MDC in 2006 featuring the then advanced HDMI 1.2
digital transfer technology. Subsequent upgrades to HDMI 1.3, HDMI
1.4 and now HDMI 2.0 have kept NAD customers at the forefront of
technology while protecting their original investment.
VM 300 4K UHD Video Module for T 187, T 777, T 787,
M15HD, M17
This upgrade incorporates two of the hottest and most desirable
new technologies into a single module that works in all NAD MDC
AV products. It not only provides Ultra High Definition (UHD) video
performance, but it also adds the option of network music streaming,
Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, allowing up to 64 zones of BluOS™ compatible
High Res Audio music players to be added to create the most
advanced multi-room system on the planet.
Using the very latest 4K video chipsets, the VM 300 supports 60
frames per second (4K/60 @ 4/4/4) to fully support all current and
future UHD formats. Many UHD AVR’s still use much slower
video processing that limits performance to 4K/60 @ 4/2/0.
VM 300 also includes the latest HDCP 2.2 copy protection
necessary for accessing all commercial UHD video releases.
Like previous MDC video modules, NAD has chosen to take a
‘do no harm’ approach to the video signal by neither adding nor
subtracting precious information, thus leaving the frame rate
and colour space unaltered from the input to the output. Only
the audio signal is extracted for processing and amplification
by the latest state-of-the-art High Resolution Audio circuitry.
Introducing BluOS for NAD
Meet the BluOS upgrade kit – a small device that easily
connects to the USB input of your BluOS ready NAD receiver
and lets you stream all your music with one easy-to-use app.
Once set up and connected to your Wi-Fi network, you can
simply use the BluOS Controller app for smartphone, tablet,
and desktop to stream & control lossless music, or group with
other BluOS enabled devices like wireless speakers, and add
high-resolution sound to any room in your home.
